Praise Hashem.

Praise Hashem, O my nefesh.

While I live will I praise Hashem:

I will sing praise unto Elohai while I have any being.

Put not your trust in princes,

nor in the ben adam, in whom there is no teshuah (salvation).

His ruach departs, he returneth to his adamah;

in yom hahu his plans come to nothing.

Ashrei is he that hath El Ya'akov for his ezer,

whose hope is in Hashem Elohav:

Oseh Shomayim vaAretz,

the yam,

and all that therein is: HaShomer Emes l'olam (Who keepeth Truth forever):

Oseh mishpat for the oppressed;

Who giveth lechem to the hungry.

Hashem mattir asurim (sets free the prisoners):

Hashem openeth the eyes of the ivrim:

Hashem raiseth them that are bowed down:

Hashem loveth the tzaddikim:

Hashem shomer over the gerim;

He relieveth the yatom (fatherless, orphan) and almanah;

but the Derech Resha'im He frustrates.

Hashem shall reign l'olam,

even thy G-d, O Tziyon, l'dor vador.

Praise Hashem.
